    I absolutley hate this phase of construction the completed sections are so nice its a shame they changed the design to something that looks so suburban and out of place for downtown.

    This is going to be beautiful when its complete, like the Lofts des Arts

    So what are the odds the tower gets an increase in height? I think even another five floors would be great and make it a real loandmark downtown. As for a small hotel on the site of Zesto's/O'Hara's, I think they should make sure it blends in with the Altitude project.

    I walk past that building all the time and usually walk a little faster so I don't get flattended by one of those huge concrete pieces because they look like they could fall off at any moment. That whole structure seems incredibly decayed. Its time to demolish it and put up something more appropriate for the middle of downtown next to such a beautiful park.

    I think they should have demolished the Theatre Maisonneuve and used that land as part of the new OSM complex. The aging brutalist concrete style really doesn't scream arts and creativity to me.

    Sounds similar to the Ben's situation, owners of prime real-estate holding out for the big cash-in deal.

    Its a beautiful tower but they need to demolish those small run-down buildings left in front, it kills the modern vibe of the area.

    I totally agree with you, Montreal has in essence been sabboaged by politics- Quebec politics and federal politics. It is terrible shame that the city's boom years of the 60s and 70s ended so abruptly and saw Toronto gain the status that rightfully should have been Montreal's. I am noticing a slight upswing in the city's direction as the MUHC has started construction and the rehabilitation of downtown continues with many infrastructure projects. Yet even munipal politics are to blame for many ills, as the giant bureaucracy of city hall prevents real decisons from taking place, the metro car contract is still undecided as is the tramway/metro extension issue. Hopefully the city can continue to build momentum and be at least half the city it could have been if politics had not gotten in the way.

    What really needs to be done is a metro line going from Panama bus terminus in Brossard to Nun's Island and then ending at Bonaventure downtown. I garantee it would be one of the most used lines in the whole metro system.

    It looks like a grimey old mid-town Manhatten hotel/apt thats waiting for redevelopment, the only problem is that its not even finished yet! I really wish they had built a big 40 floor tower that occuppied most of the block, like the original 900 De Maisonneuve proposal...

    I wish the "Hilton Garden Inn" sign at the top wasn't obstructed by that boxy part of the roof, you can't read the whole thing from certain angles.

    I'm going to try and take pictures on a regular basis as the demolition progresses.

    Is UQAM still going through with the tower part of the project or will they stop at the 8 floor base?
